The sky was getting brighter, the flames were extinguished, and the smell of burnt was in the air. Stan still hasn't slept, and he and Magill walk around the edge of the camp, trying to find where they are not guarded. But the mage's line of defense did not allow them to find a hole, much to the shock of the two knights, who seemed to them to have stayed in the mage tower all day long and did not know how to set up camp, but the result was beyond their expectations.

The two strolled towards the resting clearing, and Stan blinked hard. "If I hadn't seen you with me all the time, I would have almost thought you had set up those lines. ”

"How is that possible? I'm much better than they are. Magill crooked his lips in disbelief. "If you have to find a gap, you can still find it. ”

Stan pats the Knight Captain on the back. "Come on, Magir, you and I both know that those places are unguarded, but they have enchantments. ”

Magill still kept a straight face and quickened his pace. "Stan, it looked like it was a tentative attack last night, but I'm afraid it's going to be real tonight. ”

Stan nodded silently, glancing at the sun as it just emerged from the horizon. "I hope everyone here will see the sun tomorrow. ”

"What do you say? You crow's mouth. Magill trots up angrily, leaving Stan alone, and Stan chases after him.

Tirin and Ulf had woken up and were preparing breakfast, some of the other knights had woken up, some were still snoring, and Magir had found an open space and fell asleep, and within a few minutes the snoring was heard. Stan sits by the fire, looking at the boiling kettle, and doesn't say a word.

The sun was rising higher and higher, and the knights were boredly polishing their already very sharp weapons, and the few mages who had to play dice every day before didn't come to them, but even if they came, they weren't in the mood to play this. Stan had also fallen asleep, he had to prepare for the battle that was coming in the evening, and Nerfi had slept again after breakfast, apparently exhausted from the mental energy she had spent treating the two knights, and had not fully recovered.

The day passed without a disturbance, the sun streaked across the sky and slowly set towards the other side, the afterglow of the remnant sun shining on the tent. Several archmages had been sitting around Ramakhsh discussing something since just now, and now that it seemed that everything was arranged, the archmages all stood up and scattered in all directions. Only Ramakhsh and Sagunar were left in front of the tent, and the two mages brought them dinner, and they ate in front of the tent, still whispering something.

Stan glanced at the mage and shoved a piece of sausage into his mouth. "I don't know if they'll be able to withstand the Twilight Cult's onslaught, but I think we'll have to help them. ”

Magill looked at the fire noncommittally. "You're too upright, Stan, and at this time, preserving your strength is all that matters. ”

Stan furrowed his eyebrows, looking at Magill in confusion. "This shouldn't come out of your mouth, Magir, you are the glorious Knight of Canrito, how can you not help your allies?"

"Ally?" said Magill, looking at Stan strangely. "We're just using each other, and when it's time to get to the point, they're going to abandon us, and then we're on our own. ”

Stan can't refute the Captain's words, but the two groups of people have different intentions when they are combined into a team, which makes the upright Stan feel like a lump of cotton.

The sky slowly turns black, and when night comes, Stan notices that almost all the mages are not sleeping, everyone is nervously scanning the surroundings in their arranged positions, even Ramahesh is sitting in front of the tent, his eyes closed and not knowing what he is thinking.

The same goes for the knights, no one has the heart to sleep at this time, most of the knights are playing with their weapons, and Ulf holds the dice in his hand and spins them, making a clattering sound.

Nothing happened until midnight, and Tiring yawned. "You said that if the other side doesn't attack tonight, waits until we stay up all night and runs out of energy, and attack at dawn, then we won't suffer a big loss. ”

Stan shrugged his shoulders and replied helplessly, "That's the disadvantage of being surrounded, we're in the light, and the other side is in the dark." ”

Magill nodded. "That's true, but we can wait until dawn to rest, and in the daytime, they won't dare to attack blatantly. ”

Nalfi takes a sip of tea, and Stan smells the scent of flowers wafting out of her teacup. "Actually, for a mage camp of this size, it doesn't make a difference when you attack, the mages can change shifts and rest, which is different from the Twilight sect team you attacked, there are too few of them. ”

"What are you drinking?" Stan asked, curious.

"Tranquil Flower Tea helps me keep my mind clear, even after a sleepless night. Nerfi shows Stan the petals in his teacup.

"Tranquility flowers?" Stan looked at the snow-white petals. "Rui said that this flower can prevent seasickness. ”

"Yes, most of the mages know a little bit about herbs, and these must be learned in the Mage Tower. Nerfi pursed her lips slightly, blew off the petals on the edge of the teacup, and slowly sipped the tea.

Stan quietly looks at Nerfi's side face, the girl's immaculate face makes Stan reluctant to look away, just then, suddenly a sense of unease hits his mind for no reason, Stan looks up, only to find that the other knights are just like him, and Nerfi has placed the teacup on the ground. "It's coming!"

It was getting darker and darker in the camp, and it was already night, and the moon was hanging in the sky, and there were no dark clouds, but everyone felt an invisible darkness pressing down on their heads. Visually and psychologically, the darkness hit at the same time, and the knights drew their weapons and looked uneasily in all directions, their rapid breathing revealing that they were all very nervous.

Ramakhsh opened his eyes, and a golden light shot straight into the sky from his body, and then, in each of the four directions, a golden light shot into the sky, and the five pillars of light echoed each other from afar, and the darkness that was still pressing on everyone just now seemed to be reduced a lot.

But Nerfi could feel that the darkness had not given up and was still pressuring the camp, and that the light magic of the mages was fighting the darkness. "It's shadow magic, I have to join the light magic side, the other party's mana is very strong. With that, she raised her wand and thrust it into the ground, chanting a spell, and a golden beam of light joined the pillar of light on Ramakhsh's body, making it slightly thicker.

The roar of magic resounded all around, and the Twilight Cult's attack began, and in the light of the five pillars of light, Stan could faintly see in the distance a blackened figure approaching the camp. "It looks like we have to make a move, the advantage in numbers is too great. ”

Magill also saw the contrast between the strengths of the two sides, cursed loudly, and raised his sword. "Don't act rashly yet, we'd better not scatter, let's see which direction the defense line is weaker, let's go there together. ”

The knights obeyed the orders of the captain of the knights, and guarded all directions around them, and the sound of explosions on the periphery kept coming, and it didn't take long for the fireballs to burst closer and closer to the left of everyone.
